- tptacek 11y agoThis isn't an "essay", nor is it "axe grinding". It's one of the best current available surveys on X86 platform security. Go to SCHOLAR.GOOGLE.COM and search for "* considered harmful". Most of what Meyer has to say about "considered harmful essays" don't apply to these papers.
- pgeorgi 11y agoI was merely referring to the 'And title it "'Considered Harmful' Considered Harmful".' part of the parent post.
- pbsd 11y agoAs far as academic articles go, "* considered harmful" is probably as vague and bombastic (read: clickbaity) as a title gets (perhaps after 'Ron was wrong, Whit is right'). Personally I'd prefer a more descriptive title, like 'A survey of weaknesses and attacks on the x86 platform'. But then again, I'm a boring kind of person.
